In the Darkness

In the darkness of the night quiet music plays and a dog sleeps against my feet. 

Wearing your shirt, my head lies against a soft pillow. 

My eyes drift shut and instantly I'm transported. 

The pillow becomes your shoulder. 

The blankets become your arms around me. 

In the darkness

I hear your heartbeat under my cheek. 

In the darkness I am alone no more. 

I breathe in your scent. 

In the darkness of the night I am held safe. 

In the darkness of the night I am loved. 

In the darkness of the night I am with you once again.
